Did a flight last night usign FSPax in my JS41 and upon arrival found the plane had suffered a mechanical and the left wheel was not fully extending. Long story short, landing safely and what was going to be a simple hop turned into such a ride. With so many addons being used the immersion level was high.
GSX was part of that immersion on departure with the loading of pax and bags but upon landing I was not able to taxi off the active. Made me think of "what if". What if GSX offered an emergency responce feature just to have fire trucks etc drive up to your plane in the event of something like this.
We see the follow me car lead the plane, what if fire trucks are waiting to follow the vechicle down the active? Or just drive up to it? Pushing the Crtl +12 inflight brings up the GSX window with an option of 1) Declare an emergency ; which then changes the menu to the nearest airport list. Select the airport and as you land, the trucks are waiting and follow up to you. As just an idea.
GSX has opened up many missing features and immersion into the sim. Just felt the idea of building on its success would only add to its greatness.

The GSX menu is disabled when you're airborne, only way would be to cancel your IFR, which would allow you to select the nearest airport and land. The function Request Emergency Vehicles could be added to the same menu as Follow Me, but it would have to be called on the ground.

Thet probably could make it where you could use it in the air

i like the sound of that Kilstorm.
i like to "simulate" engine failures and other failures on take-off, mid-flight and landing
this would be a great addition to GSX or a new product that would work with GSX
im sure something like this could be created but on the other hand as Bruce said the way GSX works is using your current location to determine what airport you are at and re-programming that so you could choose the airport would make things more challenging to the end user
as i said its a good idea for a different product or addon product like GSX
